Resists

[Lael]

I played a Mage on RZ and during PoP and my memories are the following.

MR DD was basically always resisted and casting MR DD based Spells as a Mage in PvP was waste of time.

You had your Pet damage and as Spells you had to use the LOS Fire based Spells.

These Fire based Bolts would be partially resisted down to less then 1/3 the Damage even if target was partially debuffed with the non resistible Malo/Mala line.
However the damage was higher when the second debuff (Malosi/Malosini) which might land (often did not land bc of other Players high resists) after Mala/Malo had landed was cast on enemy Player.

After allot of PvP you also knew if Malosini(a) had a change to land on the specific target or not and you just sticked to the non resistable one.


Mage basic PvP fight was like this.
Dispellpots > Cast Mala & send Pet, give Malosinia 1 try then repeat casting Bolts, recast Mala etc. if it got cured.

The resist system was completely revamped between velious and pop.

Sir, I played a friend's wizard to pvp in PoP and my experience was I even saw lures get resisted there. Meanwhile, melees with Vanazir put people through walls.
